Add app to team after it was added to personal scope
- dmsaprykin - These are the ideal scenarios and yes, we need to handle the bot installation event and need to check the condition for conversation type = "Personal" or "Team" and take a decision to send the card in personal or Teams scope accordingly.
Microsoftdmsaprykin - In ideal scenario, if we add "personal" scope for your app/bot in manifest, so while installing the bot it will show "Add" button and on click on it, it always install the app/bot in personal scope.
If you want to install the bot/tab in teams channel, we should add scope as 'team' in manifest & while installing the bot/tab, it will show you the "Add To Team" button with channel selection.
Also, scopes are different for different capability like:
staticTabs => Currently, static tabs support only the personal scope, which means it can be provisioned only as part of the personal experience.
Manifest schema reference - Teams | Microsoft Docs
bots => Specifies whether the bot offers an experience in the context of a channel in a team, in a group chat (groupchat), or an experience scoped to an individual user alone (personal). These options are non-exclusive.

configurableTabs => Currently, configurable tabs support only the team and groupchat scopes.

- Thank you Chetan,
That's the problem, I need static tabs and teams/personal bot. Personal bot more for welcoming user and onboarding experience. So either Add or Add to teams can be clicked, but since our bot doesn't make sense without a team, I have to proactively install (if not installed previously) to a team user selects during onboarding chat. And I wonder if that's acceptable solution.
Main issue is when user clicks Add to team, I receive two installation events, personal first and channel second. In that case I send user a message — you're all set, bot is team A, channel B. But if Add button is clicked, I receive only one event and need to set some kind of timeout when I check if bot is not in the team so I send different onboarding flow.
Just trying to understand that that's the only option for my scenario.- ChetanSharma-msftdmsaprykin - These are the ideal scenarios and yes, we need to handle the bot installation event and need to check the condition for conversation type = "Personal" or "Team" and take a decision to send the card in personal or Teams scope accordingly.
